DISPLAY UNIT
The invention relates to a display device (1) comprising: - a light source (20) designed to generate a source light beam (S) extending over a predetermined wavelength range; - a diffractive optical element (40), the operating range of which is adapted to said wavelength range and which is arranged to receive said source light beam (S) and to transmit an image light beam (I); and - a dichroic filter (50) placed in the path of said image light beam and the passband of which at least partially covers said wavelength range so as to at least partially transmit said image light beam.
OPERATING ELEMENT OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
An operating element of a motor vehicle provided with a contact surface. The contact surface is provided with an element, controllable via actuators, that responds to the sense of touch of an operator, through which a feedback is provided to the operator about the currently engaged gear of the transmission of the motor vehicle.
Switch device
A switch device includes a switch body, which is arranged at the back side of a steering unit, and a lever unit, which is attached to the switch body to allow for switching by a pivotal operation about a first axis, which extends in the axial direction of a steering shaft. The lever unit includes a lever shaft, which extends in a direction intersecting the first axis of the pivotal operation, a lever head, which is arranged at the distal end of the lever shaft and has a larger dimension than the diameter of the lever shaft, and a push operation unit, which allows for switching by a push operation. The push operation unit is arranged so that the operation direction of the push operation is directed toward the first axis.
TOP-CONTACTED REFLECTIVE SHEET DEVICE
The present invention relates to a top-contacted reflective sheet device, which is consisted of a base, a reflective sheet and a shaft group, and an angle adjustment module is further included. By the composition of above elements, a level and a flip angle of the reflective sheet is provided to be adjusted easily, and a top end of the reflective sheet could be fixed on a windshield of a vehicle to thereby remove shakes, so that a user may easily adjust the direction of the reflective sheet to obtain an optimal viewing angle, to thereby improve driving safety.
STEERING SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE
A steering system for a vehicle may include a first actuator and a first display unit. The first actuator may include a first optical element, where when a control unit actuates the first optical element, at least one visual signal is generated to draw the attention of a vehicle driver. When the first optical element is actuated, the first display unit may also be actuated. At least one action request may displayed to the vehicle driver via the at least one display unit.
MULTI-FUNCTION ROTATIONAL SWITCH FOR VEHICLES
Compact, multi-function rotational controllers or switches that allow an operator of a vehicle to simultaneously view the status of a plurality of related functions, and to easily change or toggle the status of each of the functions. A multi-function controller of the present disclosure may include a rotatable central control dial that is at least partially surrounded by a visual indicator panel that indicates a current status for the functions that are controlled by the multi-function controller. The multi-function controller may include a selected function indicator that indicates which of the plurality of related functions is currently selected, control input hardware that receives operator input, and control circuitry that toggles the state of the selected function responsive to such operator input. The multi-function controller may include an “all functions off” function that allows the operator to simultaneously turn all of the related functions off via a single input action.
ROTARY SWITCH DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A rotary switch device for a vehicle includes a rotary dial module including a plurality of sensors, a material configured to react to a magnetic force, and a base module that generates a magnetic force greater than or equal to a threshold value to enable the rotary dial module to be attached to the base module and transmits detection results from the plurality of sensors included in the rotary dial module to an electronic device inside the vehicle when the rotary dial module is attached to the base module.
Capacitive Input Device
To provide a capacitive input device that enables the user to feel that the input operation has been done. A capacitive input device includes a surface sheet, a soft member, and a sensor sheet configured to detect a change in capacitance. The surface sheet includes an operation area on which a touching operation is to be performed. The soft member is provided between the operation area and the sensor sheet. The sensor sheet includes a sensor electrode located at a position corresponding to the operation area. When the operation area is pressed in a touching operation, the surface sheet and the soft member are displaced toward the sensor sheet and the sensor electrode detects the capacitance.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING FUNCTIONS OF A VEHICLE USING A DETACHABLE CONTROL DEVICE
Disclosed is a user interface capable of controlling various functions of a vehicle, and more particularly a vehicle function control system and a control method using a detachable control device. A method of controlling an integrated control unit includes: recognizing a first detachable control device attached to a first attachment position. among at least one attachment position provided. at an attachment unit; establishing a fist data path with. the first detachable control device; transmitting information about a first function. to be controlled corresponding to the first attachment position to the first detachable control device through the first data path; and when receiving first manipulation information from the first detachable control device, controlling the first function to be controlled based on the first manipulation information.
A CONTROL SYSTEM AND COMPONENTS THEREFOR
The present invention relates to a control system and components therefor, the invention has particular application in adjusting the brake bias in a vehicle. The control system of the present invention may provide greater usability than existing brake bias control systems due to features such as allowing a display screen to be seen at a glance and the ability to zero the count shown on the display.
